Roberto
 
The European Association for Cardiothoracic Surgery (EACTS) has just
released guidelines on anticoagulation and antithrombosis before and after
cardiac surgery - this may give you some 'legality' to support local
practice change if you are unhappy about being forced to use warfarin. 
 
The guidelines make recommendations on a very wide range of practice issues,
ranging from if and when to stop aspirin, plavix, use of hepcon to guide
heparinisation and reversal, use of antifibrinolytics, factor vii, use of
antiplatelet drugs post cardiac surgery etc. Also discussed is
anticoagulation after valve surgery. For the aortic position the guidelines
say evidence does not support the use of warfarin after bioprosthetic valve
and this practice may be harmful. For the mitral position they state that
there is no evidence supporting or refuting the use of warfarin after
bioprosthetic valve.
 
The article is available online through pubmed and the european journal
though not yet available in print.
